Although even the simplest bruschetta recipe is a thing of beauty, taking a little time to add some extra touches can take this dish to the next level. This version by Social Pantry whips goat's cheese and cream to a silky-smooth finish, which is then served with the customary tomatoes and basil on toasted bread.

Method

Preheat the oven to 160°C.
Cut the tomatoes into quarters and in a bowl, mix with the basil leaves and a splash of olive oil. Season and set aside.
Slice the bread into thick slices and put on a baking tray. Drizzle with a little olive oil and Maldon salt and bake for 5—6 minutes until crisp and lightly golden. Set aside to cool. (You can also toast in a toaster if preferred.)
Break up the goat’s cheese into small pieces and either blend in a small bowl mixer, or whisk by hand until smooth and softened. Once smooth, mix in the double cream, be careful not to overmix. You can use feta if you do not have goat’s cheese.
To assemble, spread the goat’s cheese onto the toast, top with tomatoes and sprinkle with seeds. Enjoy!
